History
Primary Canon
In 1939, a flower cart took off by itself and rolled half a kilometer. Three hundred people witnessed the event. [2] In 1989, Egon Spengler found this incident in The Great Book of Magical Art, Hindu Magic and East Indian Occultism while conducting research after Dana Barrett's son Oscar's baby carriage was pulled by unknown forces. It was later discovered that the latest paranormal disturbances were caused by Vigo's attempts to come back from the dead.
